Potamides: Mapping Dark Matter Halo Shapes from Stellar Stream Tracks in the Local Universe

Sirui Wu, Nathaniel Starkman, Sarah Pearson +3

Stellar streams trace the gravitational potential of their host galaxies and offer a direct probe of dark matter halo geometry. Cosmological simulations predict that halo shapes de…

A stellar stream around the spiral galaxy Messier 61 in Rubin First Look imaging

Aaron J. Romanowsky, David Martínez-Delgado, Giuseppe Donatiello +2

We present the first stellar stream discovered with the Vera C. Rubin Observatory, around spiral galaxy M61 (NGC 4303) in Virgo First Look imaging. The stream is narrow, radially-o…

Stellar tidal streams around nearby spiral galaxies with deep imaging from amateur telescopes

David Martinez-Delgado, Michael Stein, Joanna D. Sakowska +26

Tidal interactions between massive galaxies and their satellites are fundamental processes in a Universe with L-Cold Dark Matter cosmology, redistributing material into faint featu…

Extragalactic Stellar Tidal Streams: Observations meet Simulation

Juan Miro-Carretero, Maria A. Gomez-Flechoso, David Martinez-Delgado +11

According to the well established hierarchical framework for galaxy evolution, galaxies grow through mergers with other galaxies and the LambdaCDM cosmological model predicts that…

Extragalactic Stellar Tidal Streams in the Dark Energy Survey

Juan Miro-Carretero, David Martinez-Delgado, Maria A. Gomez-Flechoso +7

Stellar tidal streams are a key tracer of galaxy evolution and have the potential to provide an indirect means for tracing dark matter. For the Local Group, many diffuse substructu…

A search for stellar tidal streams around Milky Way analogues from the SAGA sample

Juan Miro-Carretero, David Martinez-Delgado, Silvia Farras-Aloy +6

Context. Stellar tidal streams are the result of tidal interactions between a central galaxy and lower mass systems like satellite galaxies or globular clusters. For the Local Grou…
